2006 Harley Davidson Flhtcui 1.4L Petrol · DX06 ADV

The 2006 Harley Davidson FLHTCUI presents a clean roadworthiness profile with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent MOT test on 26 July 2025 at 38,752 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. Across the five examinations held between 2021 and 2025, the vehicle cleared each assessment without advisory or failure. This unbroken sequence suggests the previous keeper addressed any required items before testing and maintained the machine to a standard acceptable for annual scrutiny. Registered mileage shows exceptionally low use for a twenty-year-old machine. The odometer read 37,662 miles at the 10 April 2021 test, crept to 37,800 miles by 23 July 2022, then 37,847 miles on 28 September 2023, 38,560 miles at the 23 July 2024 examination, and finalised at 38,752 miles on 26 July 2025. Total accumulation across those four years and three months equals just 1,090 miles, an annual average near 260 miles. Such sparse progression, with only a modest lapse between the 2021 and 2022 testing dates, points to prolonged storage and gentle recreational riding rather than wear-driven neglect. Despite the absence of recorded defects, a buyer should physically inspect aged components that static periods can conceal. The tester raised no advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs or structural integrity, yet a tourer of this vintage stored for long spells may harbour hardened rubber mounts, lightly corroded exhaust emissions hardware or binding front calipers unseen during a road test. We recommend a workshop check of fork seals, wheel bearing play and frame corrosion at the lower members before purchase. The clean MOT ledger implies previous owners prioritised basic legal upkeep, but low mileage alone does not certify mechanical fitness. Examine tyre sidewall cracking, brake fluid condition and drivetrain belt tension on the appointed viewing. A short road trial should confirm neutral steering and absence of drivetrain lash. These steps will validate the paper record against the realities of a lightly used two-decade-old motorcycle.
